Not playing around

Ok. I love discourse as much as the next person. But despise strongly pointless inflammatory discourse. Pointless discourse I have no problem with. I don't care how many lols, rofls, omg, kit or whatsoever self pity we use to hide. Marking it offtopic isn't strong enough. Deletion is the keyword of this particular musing.

Random yes. Silly video? Check. Pictures of significant others? Affirmativo. Don't think it will pass? Type it and test the mods lol. NOT. This will most likely be skipped over and started anew when Grandpa Zabel gets back but for now Papa has taken off his belt. Play nicely on the playground and share the slide....

Bad Religion at Warped=Amazing

socalgal #172.1 socalgalOG 2003

I LOVE THEM! did they do a lot of new stuff or mix it up?

thatdarngirl #172.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

It was a good mix!! I mean, they only get a 45 minute set but it was so perfect (totally not in order because I don't remember):
-America Jesus
-Generator
-Requiem
-New Dark Ages
-Anesthesia
-F' Armageddon..
-Do What You Want
-Honest Goodbye
-Sorrow (how they ended it! so great)
-Infected

thatdarngirl #172.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

-Social Suicide

thatdarngirl #172.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Warped Tour in general? Eh..at least I'm old enough to cheer in the shade of the beer garden.

Crowd surfers=bane of my existance. I wanted to just beat up each of those stupid girls who thought it was so fun and prohibited me from completely enjoying my favorite band who they probably had never even heard of. Some girls I saw go by twice..twice! I was right on the gate at the front too, so major kickage in the head. Fortunately, I had some awesome guys behind me (read: super tall) who were nice enough to throw the crowd surfers over me.

Weirdest thing: a kid in his wheel chair crowd surfed.

yay #172.3 yayOG 2004

The only reason I would even think of going to the warped tour

thatdarngirl #172.3.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Only reason I went. I even missed the other bands I wouldn't have mind seeing because we went late in the afternoon.

tesoro #171 tesoroOG 2001

I don't know if you guys have an S & K mensware around, but they're having a great sale right now...2 designer suits for $400. and the shirts and ties are buy two get one free. They have good names too, Jones NY, Oscar De La Renta, Vanetti. Austin got two beautiful suits yesterday! He's going to look so sezshey for the convention this weekend.

superhero #171.1 superheroOG 2004

hmm i need some new suits bad, but i think we have K&G around here ... we also have Jos. A. Banks (not sure of the exact name) which I heard is really good too.

i remember today's man, back in the day. that place was awesome.

tesoro #171.1.1 tesoroOG 2001

yea, we have a JOS too, never been in there, but i've heard good things.

juicymango #171.2 juicymangoOG 2003

oh we're gonna be at the convention this weekend - Reading, PA?

tesoro #171.2.1 tesoroOG 2001

yea, thats ours. are you assigned there, or just going?

juicymango #171.2.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah, assigned there. Kinda funny because the congo that shares our hall is going to Jersey City, lol, but.. hey, whateva, it's gonna be nice i think. I've never been to Reading I hope it's at least interesting to walk around after the convention.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

oh, wow. so weird. (well, this is def better than jersey city) i went to one day last year at the brooklyn assembly hall, and it's so annoying, cuz it doesnt feel like a convention at all. this is not a real big place only like 6 or 7 thousand. we should go to dinner one night!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

That's what I keep saying! It kind of bums me out a little because I -love- the huge assemblies; they always give you a good perspective on how large but still united the organization is. But at least we can still receive the information!

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

ya how about Friday? Saturday is not good and Sunday we'll probably jet home after because we'll be far and we'll miss our doggie. oh and the cat too. ha

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

cool. we have plans with a few couples from my hall, so that will be good. they know they area pretty well, so i'll talk to ya.

A
alexOG 2001

no, i've been to reading...it sucks big time.

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

whats weird about our convention is my mom my dad & i are all 3 in diff congregations in the same circuit, but all assigned to diff conventions.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

YOU'RE what's weird about your convention.

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

very VERY true.

iwz #169.1 iwz

haha, so random. sup Sal

theremin #169.2 thereminOG 2002

so weird that I'm only on this site today, from I think following link from your ClonePod website to I think the Absolute Zero website, and then to this site, which was like more than 5 full years ago. Btw, Sal, the UK won't give me another work permit as I had before. I hafta to find other routes; probably hafta go to some other countries instead. Like maybe Ireland and Australasia next year, and Czech to follow. Thanks for IM. When I saw it, you had been signed off. Let me know when you're in town, I'll do the same if I'm over in Europe.

superhero #169.3 superheroOG 2004

oh man sal do i miss you ... how you been?

tesoro #169.3.1 tesoroOG 2001

I think you guys need to start that "dating advice" website again. I forgot the name, 3 guys or 4 guys or something. It would be interesting to see what you guys have to say now...6 or 7 years later. I remember i saw that thing when i first met you hills, dellas & pietros. what was the name of it??

superhero #169.3.1.1 superheroOG 2004

sometimes i have so much to say about dating, i have to tell myself to shut up, because my single friends need to experience all the joy of it on their own.

yesterday my friend was saying to me "i feel bad, i met this girl and i told her come to NY/NJ from CA to hang out, and but we realized right away when we hung out that there was nothing there". and i told him - SO WHAT?!?! That's the point of meeting people and spending time with them - so you can figure out if that's the kind of person you want to be with. Also, we live near the greatest city in the world - she got an awesome trip plus she got to hang out with cool people. what's the problem?

theremin #168 thereminOG 2002

I was in JC today @ the Stan. So, who else was there? I'm interested in all the Cong's names that are attending this weekend or at least as many as you're able to name.

punkprincess #168.1 punkprincessOG 2001

i was, i actually saw you walk by, and said to adam...hey thats "theremin" but there was a big crowd, and you were walking fast, and i didnt wanna yell "hey robbie" b/c that would have been inappropriate. but yea...this w/e is my DC....i think its pieces of NJ circuit 8 & 2.

i know everyone always says this...but im serious this is the best DC by far!

theremin #168.1.1 thereminOG 2002

Wow.. I was gonna actually ask were you there, because I thought I saw your husband in the Foyer, but wasn't sure. I was thinking of going up to him and saying Hello, you're Adam, right? But, I didn't think he'd know who I was. Think he's only met me once almost 4 years ago. I must of missed when you two were standing together and noticed me. You should have yelled! I was walking aimlessly the whole time. If I seemed to be walking fast, I must have been accidently faking an actual destination and deadline. Completely bored after I finished eating my lunch. I was really disappointed I only saw 1 person I know, and I see him all the time. I was looking foward to seeing everyone from my good old North Jersey memories and didn't. You're right about the programme. Excellente! It's not my District, I went Friday to split up my days. I'm going to the Sat. & Sun. in 2 weeks I think it is.

punkprincess #168.1.1.1 punkprincessOG 2001

hahaha my husband is nice, he wouldnt have cared if he didnt remember you & you came up to him.

oh my dad goes in two weeks! thats kool how theyre splitting everyone up.

juicymango #167 juicymangoOG 2003

A man who worked as a caretaker for Ving Rhames was found dead on his property early this morning. Reportedly the man was mauled to death by one of Ving's four Mastiffs. Ving was not at home at the time. He is said to be out of town. All four dogs have been taken into custody.

Police are still investigating whether or not the man died from the dog attacks or if he died from a possible heart attack or some other medical condition.

OH GREAT. Look for a Mastiff ban in the near future.

ugh.

web-toedchloe #166 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Lesson of the afternoon: It's hard to play burnout after having wine.

socalgal #165 socalgalOG 2003

OUCH

yay #165.1 yayOG 2004

Yeah that's just wild, how many feet did he fall?

socalgal #165.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

like 50 ft

superhero #165.1.1.1 superheroOG 2004

just like dane cook says "then the shoes flew off!"

superhero #165.2 superheroOG 2004

was this actually during the event or during practice? cause they showed one from the practice (i think it was this one) and the guy came out of the hospital on saturday and came right back to the event

socalgal #165.2.1 socalgalOG 2003

nah it was actually during the event. insane right?

STRUNG OUT IN NYC - Oct!
http://fatwreck.com/tour/show_state?event_state=NY&statesubmit.x=15&statesubmit.y=3

10/06/07 Strung Out Knitting Factory
New York, NY w/ Evergreen Terrace, I Am Ghost

I'm so there.

web-toedchloe #164.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I love the knitting factory. Do you like SO's new album? I think it's kinda lame.

A
#164.1.1 alexOG 2001

i really liked their new album.

toddles, i totally wanna go to that show! also, do you want to go see the bourne ultimatum tonight???

rocksupastar #164.1.1.1 rocksupastarFounder

i liked the previous one better... this one doesnt seem to have the same energy that the previous one did. But its good...

web-toedchloe #164.1.1.2 web-toedchloeOG 2001

The music is good, but the lyrics are lame. I know they can do better.

B
#164.1.1.3 brothermanOG 2004

Wow! I actually like this album. I'm going to buy it.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

WOW is right! Holy crap, what have we done!? Turned you on to progressive punk? What is this world coming to!? Did someone steal your account and make that last comment?

B
brothermanOG 2004

This is probably the only punk album you guys have introduced that I actually like. Haha...

flomojopoanode #164.1.1.4 flomojopoanodeFounder

sorry, alex! I worked from 9-10:30 yesterday. I was hoping I'd be out in time, but I wasn't. How was it?

A
alexOG 2001

uuuh, how can i put this?...amazing?

flomojopoanode #164.1.2 flomojopoanodeFounder

I don't want to get "into it" with anyone about this. Personally I think Strung Out out does themselves each and every album. The first CD you ever heard was WAYYYY different than most of their older stuff. It was very progressive. I love it. But, I think this newest CD reminds me of a part of every CD they've written. They haven't left their roots, and yet they continue to progress. Simply amazing. The few lyrics I have read through, I love. All in all, 5 stars.

web-toedchloe #164.1.2.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I wasn't trying to start a fight...

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I was sincerely interested in other's opinions. Sheesh.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

oh, I know. I didn't berate you, did I? Sorry if you felt hurt. I was doing just as you said. Expressing my opinion of the album. Sorry, Di. :)

yeah so the Nicole Atkins show was amazing.. amaaazing

and Chris Isaak is the modern-day Elvis

he's pretty zexy i'd say

but he is getting old

tesoro #161 tesoroOG 2001

i think warped is out for today, i'm deathly ill. not really, but i dont feel good. maybe on sunday....

fivezero #161.1 fivezeroOG 2003

Makes me remember my first concert experience. Warped Tour 97. I went for the next six consecutive years too. Now there's no reason for me to go.

Ten years of concerts. Maybe 200 shows total by now. Lord knows how many bands. Good times.

web-toedchloe #161.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

The scene is dead.

fivezero #161.1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

Agreed

thatdarngirl #161.1.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Gah, I forgot I meant to ask everyone this earlier.

For you vet Warp Tourers, anything I should know about going on Sunday? I think we're gonna be there a good part of the day, should I be packing a ton of food/drink in the car or can you not even leave once there..?

katiedid #160 katiedidFounder

B
#160.1 brothermanOG 2004

This just depressed me. :o( I'm living in a closet. Meanwhile people who bought 10 yrs ago and make less money are able to have a house. Doesn't seem fair.

socalgal #160.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

just stay away from the big cities...you dont like em anyway. thats where its most expensive...and all of CA. lol

B
#160.1.1.1 brothermanOG 2004

I live in farm country. It's still expensive. Even eastern PA is getting pricey. Hackettstown is like 1 mile across. You drive west of it and it is all farms and woods.

B
brothermanOG 2004

My rent is $1100 a month for a small 2BR apt.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

OK. $1100 a month IS NOT expensive for a 2 bedroom. here in OC, you're looking to pay $1300 for a one bedroom.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

and thats just starting. apts like across the street from Angels Stadium are starting at $1600 for a one bedroom.

B
brothermanOG 2004

Yeah but the house I live in is really old. I'm guessing those are new facilities at least.

B
brothermanOG 2004

There's a house next door being rented out for $1500. 3BR's. But it's old too, and that'd pretty much tap me out. We'd be living on spaghetti o's. LOL!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 brotherman

$1500 is good for a house.

B
brothermanOG 2004 socalgal

Yeah but for $200-300 more you can get a newer place. Sucks only having one income. I can't wait till the kids no longer need to go to daycare. I'll save $500 a month. Many yrs away from that though.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 brotherman

thats right, i forgot you had the kidders. kids alone are expensive.

well hey, look at it this way....you can do what the illegals do here..they buy an $800K house and have like 10 families live in it! lol

B
brothermanOG 2004 socalgal

Definitely. Kids bleed you dry. Haha...

How do they buy if they are illegal? Aren't credit checks done?

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 brotherman

they get someone who's a citizen here file all the documents under their name and them BAM all the illegals in one home.

juicymango #159 juicymangoOG 2003

so i had a dream that my friend and I were walking somewhere and Christina Aguilera walked past us all smiling and my friend goes "hey! What are you so happy about?" and Christina Aguilera lifted up her shirt to show us her pregnant belly. And it was a really really hairy belly. Kind of disturbing!!!!

superhero #159.1 superheroOG 2004

ohh i love her

so tiny and cute

yet such a good voice

juicymango #159.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah I love her! I don't know why she was hairy in my dream haha

flomojopoanode #159.1.1.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

I had a dream the other night that my head had shrunk, but I didn't know it until when the guy showed me. You see, I was getting my haircut. and you know how sometimes they show you your head from behind in a mirror so you see it from the back? Well he showed me mine, and it was the size of my fist. and there was a giant gouge out of it with hair missing. I was shocked as I walked toward the counter to pay for the cut. He announced the price of the cut ($14 bucks!) and I started yelling that my head was too small for that cut to cost that much. It was only a 3 dollar cut, because it took him 2 seconds to shave my hair off my tiny head.

Very perturbing.

web-toedchloe #156.2.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Good last names. Although I think "Dyson" is a vacuum brand. :) I'm thinking Max will be a good first name for this character.

fivezero #156.2.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

You must like this character or something. People use the name Max for cool, fun, clever characters. Rarely is there an unsympathetic cretin named Max in a book. I think Max is a terrible name. It's also the name of the dog in my yard.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

He's the protagonist, so yeah, i like him. I'll let you read it when it's done.

You have the choak collar on him... No wonder he is crazy.

fivezero #153.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

believe me, i kinda think he needs it. he's a young australian cattle dog. totally bonkers. i personally wouldn't use a choker collar on a dog i owned...

i was walking him earlier and this old lady asked me "is he blind?" cuz of the silver/blue eyes. makes me want a dog like this, but nahhh. too nuts.

B
#153.1.1.1 brothermanOG 2004

Maybe he's really a Dingo and they are just telling you that he is a cattle dog.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

we call him a dingo sometimes. i don't think he's got dingo in him. he's be more ferocious.

socalgal #153.2 socalgalOG 2003

CUJO!!! lol

juicymango #153.3 juicymangoOG 2003

Is your hair naturally wavy? If so, are you going to be straightening it a lot? I got the con-air hair dryer/straightener (it straightens as you blow dry without having to use a brush) and it's great!

LOL! thats so hilarious. crocevera? duschaine? i thought i spelled them right!!!!

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

yea, crocevera is right, but it's DUCHAINE! i hate you.

both times you sent me anniversary cards you spelled it DUSHAINE, and you always spelled crocevera croSevera.

superhero superheroOG 2004

i always thought there was an "h" in crocovera

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

Thats because when you say "crocevera" the "ce" sounds like "che"

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

just be glad you got anniversary cards...how much longer do we have to do that....soon itll only be at the 5's (15 20 25...) and then just 10's (30 40 50). so when do we stop the charade? hahaha

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

the jig is up.

nooo! we don't celebrate ANYTHING, we have to still send anniversary cards!

man, everytime christmas/easter/every other major gifting holiday rolls around, i'm so glad i don't have to do that crap, and send people gifts and cards that you don't hardly know or like.

we do a "Family Day" on my inlaws or my anniversary every year (mostly for the kids) and that stresses me out enough! finding gifts for everyone. sheesh.

ugh we saw them live before TBS and it was horrible. i think that guy should retire, STAT. that might have been the same night we saw Angels to Airwaves - also terrible.

highlight of that night - Mike Cowie did a handstand/break dance move in the middle of the mosh pit. He was totally upside down on one hand. Also, he did not get hit by anyone. I wish I had my camera for that.

tesoro #142.1.1 tesoroOG 2001

jared leto is hot. i like men in black eyeliner. austin will not let me put it on him though. hahahhaha

socalgal #142.1.1.2 socalgalOG 2003

my guy friends used to wear the black eyeliner when we were in Jr High (80's) we were laughing SO hard a while back when we busted out the pics, cause the guys are all MS's now.

do you still like seeing TBS live? i don't like the "new" lead singer. i hate his gyrations and lunging. ugh, i hate him. and how he twirls the microphone. so irritating.

superhero #142.1.2.1 superheroOG 2004

there's a girl at my job and she has a Brand New sweatshirt that says "Mikes are for singing, not for swinging" and has an outline of the guy from TBS

i have tried to steal this sweatshirt on multiple occasions

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

HAHA! so funny! i love brand new AND TBS. both Long Islanders!

what is their beef anyway? why do they hate eachother?

superhero superheroOG 2004

lauren says it's because someone slept with someone's girlfriend or sister something.

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

the guy from brand new slept with the guy from TBS's wife... and the last 2 cd's were about that drama.

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

NO STINKIN WAY! jerk.

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

they used to be really good friends, but after that... yeah.

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

I dont see what the big deal is? I mean whats a wife between really close friends? GOSH, I wish they would just grow up...

g.f.s.rocks g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

So I found this information on Wikipedia:

"Adam Burbank Lazzara is the lead singer of the American rock band, Taking Back Sunday. On the album Tell All Your Friends he sung co-lead vocals with guitarist John Nolan. After a fairly bitter fight between the two of them (Adam had previously had romantic relations with Nolan's sister, Michelle Nolan, and rumors suggest that this may have been the real cause), John and bassist Shaun Cooper left to form Straylight Run.

Jesse Thomas Lacey is the lead singer of the band Brand New, previous to this, he had a short spell in Taking Back Sunday where he played bass and backing vocals on old records. Jesse Lacey has close ties with fellow Long Island musician John Nolan, a former member of Taking Back Sunday and a current member of Straylight Run.

Fellow Long Island band Brand New, released T-shirts reading "Mics are for Singing, Not for Swinging", and "You Know Who You Are" printed on the back. The shirts were designed in the aftermath of John Nolan and Shaun Cooper's departures from the band in 2003. In an email that had been sent out, detailing their fans on the introduction of Fred Mascherino and Matt Rubano's entrance into the line-up, the Taking Back Sunday members stated: "p.s. T-shirts are for wearing, not talking about on the internet..."[2] Later that year, Taking Back Sunday released a retort shirt that read: "Proudly Swinging Since 1999."

superhero superheroOG 2004

haha that's actually pretty interesting, and helpful. Turns out Lauren was right.

what do you mean "new singer"?

when i saw them the singer did that all too...

when was the last time you saw em? i don't know when exactly all the changes happened. it's been a couple years.

Did you guys hear about that bridge collapse in Minneapolis?

so crazy.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070802/ap_on_re_us/bridge_collapse_witnesses

superhero #141.1 superheroOG 2004

think that could ever happen to the GWB?

from now on i'm only taking the tunnel

tesoro #141.1.1 tesoroOG 2001

tunnels scare me way more than bridges do. i'd rather be falling INTO water, then trapped UNDER water.

katiedid #141.1.2 katiedidFounder

I like to think they inspect the integrity of the GWB often

B
#141.1.2.1 brothermanOG 2004

Yeah, I wouldn't worry as much about the GWB. Suspension cable bridges are much stronger than the one in Minneapolis.

thatdarngirl #141.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Oh man..I heard about this but I had to stop reading and looking at the pictures. My greatest fear, for some reason, is having my car go off a bridge into water.

yay #141.3 yayOG 2004

I just heard on the news this morning that NJ ranks 34 on bridge safety

B
#141.3.1 brothermanOG 2004

Doesn't surprise me. A lot of these bridges were built in the 30's and 40's.

thatdarngirl #141.3.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

My dad was telling me about something he read about the Tapanzee bridge and how, when they built it, it was only supposed to have a fifty year live span. Yeah, well it was built in 1952 so no one go to Connecticut!

superhero #141.3.2.1 superheroOG 2004

uhm the tapp connects rockland county to westchester county.

you might want to find another way to Connecticut though. maybe take the GWB to 87North to 95, or just take the GWB to 95. Or I guess you could take 287 to 87North to 84 (by Newburgh).

Long live Connecticut!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

I know it connects parts of NY but that's how I always get to Conn. People actually go to Westchester county?

superhero superheroOG 2004

if they want to see patrick paro they do

web-toedchloe #141.3.2.2 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Hey, I live in CT! They're actually reinforcing the tappan now. It's better than 95 through the bronx, which is always trafficy.

hunkpapap #141.3.2.3 hunkpapapOG 2003

who the heck takes this route to get to CT? I guess rockland folks in the southern part...

hahaha ;)

tesoro #140 tesoroOG 2001

I got my car detailed yesterday. it looks brandnew. pretty dang exciting. it was only $80 bucks, in NY it's like $140. which doesnt make sense because, although MOST things are quite a bit cheaper here, car washes are way more expensive. ($20 for interior & exterior here.) hmph.

superhero #140.1 superheroOG 2004

i want to get that done for my car but then i'm scared it will get dirty again quickly because i drove some people around and then i will be mad

one time i got my Acura Integra detailed, and it was right before my dad went on a business trip. And while my dad was gone i parked my car in the garage in his spot and then drove his car every day. and at night i would just go in the garage and look at my car. it was so fun.

tesoro #140.1.1 tesoroOG 2001

ummmm, that's pretty weird dan. haha

i was so excited to drive my car after it was done cuz it was all clean & new and shiney. but i do gaze at her from my window at work. hahaha

rocksupastar #140.1.1.1 rocksupastarFounder

ur both lame... i just wait for rain...

jehovah provided me with a free car detailing.

what about the inside - that smells like poop?

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

easy. leave your doors open.

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

please, how many times have i driven YOU around in my car!!!

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

hahhaa, me & austin always make fun of his friend nathan, cuz the inside of his car always smells like sour milk. it's sooooo gross. i guess you just get used to the stench after a while, huh, Mike? haha

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

well actually malibu gave me a HARDCORE pinefresh air freshner... so i dont have to worry about poopy smell.

gracias

tesoro #135.2 tesoroOG 2001

At Ezekial 21:7 it says: 7 And it must occur that, in case they say to you, ‘On account of what are you sighing?’ you must say, ‘At a report.’ For it will certainly come, and every heart must melt and all hands must drop down and every spirit must become dejected and all knees themselves will drip with water. ‘Look! It will certainly come and be brought to occur,’ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.”

Someone commented that they looked up what it meant that their knees will drip with water...the insight book said it was more than just sweat, it was actually urine. They peed themselves from fear.

Interesting.

g.f.s.rocks #135.2.1 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

So, I went to work this morning and felt like a pile of pudding, so I came home to rest a little. I think caffeine is screwing up my system. I don't get to bed till like 1am nowadays and when I wake up it's like I got no sleep. I think coffee needs to be stripped from my system.

socalgal #134.1 socalgalOG 2003

im wired ALL day if i have too much caffeine and then ill get like a panic attack at night cause of what i had all day. lol

B
#134.1.1 brothermanOG 2004

I don't know what the deal is. I've felt exhausted all week. Maybe I need vitamins. But it's not like I am inactive. I exercise and stuff. My mom has Fibro Mialga (not sure of spelling). I wonder if it's heriditary.

socalgal #134.1.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

maybe you caught mono? or you've just been SO stressed that you're finally relaxing? vitamins could DEF be a factor!

B
brothermanOG 2004

Possibly. I don't know. Maybe it's a tumor. LOL!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

hahaha i've had the gnarliest sinus headache and took meds for it and it still hasnt gone away. so i emailed the symptoms to my friend and told them i had a tumor. lol

maybe you got the ebola? mad cow? the HIV?

B
brothermanOG 2004

Haha... I think it's my wacky sleep pattern. I feel much better when I'm in bed by 11.

iwz #134.2 iwz

having caffeine in your system prevents you from getting the most out of your sleep. so you wake up feeling less rested.

and if you drink a cup of coffee in the morning, some of that caffeine is still in your system when you go to sleep that night. which makes you more tired the next day. so you drink more coffee. and the cycle continues.

get yourself off caffeine. it'll probably help.

juicymango #134.2.1 juicymangoOG 2003

hmm this is interesting

i'm on 2-3 lo-carb Monsters a day

probably not good hahahahahahahahhahahhha OR IS IT?!?!?!
